Yeah, thanks for reporting this. I had made a mental note about dealing
with this when I noticed the change in newer versions, but completely
forgot.

To fix this as quickly as possible, I could put it on my personal server
and redirect some debian.net address to it (like blocklist.debian.net or
something). Depending on the load, this could remain for the lifetime of
squeeze or lucid.
However, how would this blocklist be updated? Should I just regularly
wget another blocklist from some other server and gunzip it?
How about directly using this URL:
http://list.iblocklist.com/?list=bt_level1&fileformat=p2p&archiveformat=
(would probably be a good idea to ask beforehand)

I'm gonna start calling you just KK ("kay-kay"), because every single
time I have to write your name, I have to recheck my spelling about 3-4
times! :)

Cheers
